... anyway, ok, plastic is bad and everything.
But right now I'm giving an IV to my cat and idly wondering how many lives plastic actually saved...
How many medical equipments, part of our advanced medical system, are made of plastic? Didn't exist before plastic? Wouldn't be possible without plastic?
I never thought of this before... 

 @fe99e5c1 I think of plastic as a super material that is versatile and lasts several lifetimes. It's a shame it is so cheap that it is treated as a disposable material, which it isn't. 

 @fe99e5c1 plastic is the cursed magic of our society. It’s done SO much for us, but the curse is coming due now.
